Manage Deferred Rollforwards

You can manage Deferred Rollforwards in Administration (System level) and in My Datasets (Dataset level). You can set up Tags or Classes & Subclasses to define how adjustments appear in reports. The system lets you create up to 26 Columns for reporting purposes. All unassigned adjustments will appear in the Default column.
To manage deferred rollforwards in Administration:
  1. Select
    Administration
    and then
    System
    .
  2. Select
    Manage Deferred Rollforwards
    .
  • When new datasets are created, deferred rollforward information is populated using the information set up in
    Administration > Manage Deferred Rollforwards
    .
To manage deferred rollforwards in a dataset:
  • Select
    My Datasets > More > Manage Deferred Rollforwards
    .
    To set up Manage Deferred Rollforwards in Data Entry, click
    Copy from Admin
    to copy information to the dataset from
    Administration > Manage Deferred Rollforwards.
Here are the guidelines for managing deferred rollforwards at the dataset level:
  • The setup for new datasets is copied from the Administration area. Datasets that are copied or rolled over use the setup of the dataset from when they are copied/rolled over. You can reset these datasets to the Administration set up by clicking Copy From Admin.
  • Select the number of columns.
  • Enter amounts according to defined Column Names. This means that, for each column name, you can only have one Type (Activity, Deferred Only, Balance Sheet Only). Be sure to click Save when you finish entering information.
  • The letters on the right side of the page are the tag letters.
  • Check the Active box for the Column name to appear as a data row in the Rollforward section of Temporary Difference pages.
  • If a column name is associated with multiple tags, amounts associated with that name become Read-Only.
If more than one Type is defined for a column name the default is as follows:
  • If Activity, Deferred Only, and Balance Sheet Only are defined, the Type posts as Deferred Only.
  • If Activity and Balance Sheet Only are defined, the Type posts as Balance Sheet Only.
  • If Activity and Deferred Only are defined, the Type posts as Deferred Only.
  • If Deferred Only and Balance Sheet Only are defined, the Type posts as Deferred Only.
